The
Songs of You and Me by Mylissa
Demeyere
Book Blurb:
A SECOND CHANCE AT FIRST LOVE.
Jane Hartford fell head over heels
for Jackson at the tender age of fifteen. She spent most of high school pining
for him, until she realized he wasn't going to see her as anything more than
his baby sister's best friend. Now she finds herself single with a daughter, a
broken heart, and songs that remind her of a long lost love.
Jackson Wright is a man living with
regret. His biggest one, never acting on his feelings for Jane. When he returns
to Bellebrook, the town they grew up in, he literally runs into her and his
world gets tossed upside down and sideways.
This time, Jackson isn't willing to
give up. With a meddling sister eager to push both of them together, he
believes things might actually work out. That is, if they can overcome the
heavy baggage they both carry. Follow Jackson and Jane as they revisit their
past, figuring out what went wrong so long ago.
Will they learn they have the power
to make things right in the present?

The Songs of You and Me pulled me in from page one. The characters came to
life and I felt as if I was part of their story. I stayed up night after night
fascinated with their personal and individual challenges. Their obstacles were
relatable and tugged at my heart. I couldn’t wait to finish and yet I didn’t
want it to end. As I read the last page, I was ecstatic to see what would come
next from Mylissa Demeyere. – Jamie, Amazon Reviewer
Jane (15 years old)
“What
was so funny back there?” He asked as his pen stalled.
“Huh?”
I pretended not to know what he was talking about as I paged through the book
in front of me.
“You
know what I mean.” He pushed the subject a little harder.
“Oh,
you know the effect you have on the female student body, Jackson. You don’t
need me to spell it out for you.”
“Do I
now?” He wagged his brows.
“Seriously,
you know you’re the popular jock and you actually have half a brain. It’s a
rare phenomenon as opposed to the others on the team that only have the looks
but are so lacking in other areas.”
“Half a
brain?” He looked genuinely insulted. Poor guy. I was sure he got enough of
girls stroking his ego, he didn’t need me to help in that department.
“Yes,
half a brain. Need I remind you, I’m a freshman helping out a senior with his
English paper?”
His
smug smile faltered, and his left eyebrow scrunched up. I guess I just took
this guy down a notch or two. “I didn’t think so,” I continued. “You’re going
to attract fans anywhere you go.”
“Are
you a fan, Jane?”
I felt
the color rise in my cheeks. His comment hit a little too close to home.
“You’re
feeling pretty good about yourself right now, aren’t you? Do you want me to
bring you a mirror and give you a moment alone?” I managed to divert the
attention from me and set him straight.
“Never
mind, I’m good. Let’s get to work.”
